Phone button lag fix?

Does anyone have the necessary edit or a link to it?

To be clear, the symptoms are that when I press any of the soft-buttons, there is a delay of up to a few seconds before the tone is heard (but usually only about one second; That's a looong time when you're trying to dial!).
When I disconnect a call using the red phone-key, it usually takes a few seconds to actually disconnect.

You'll have to add the last key, and the value...

 
;1/2 second delay for End Button to end call
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Phone\PhoneExtendSetting]
"EndCallTime"=dword:000001f4

I think that this is very close... I remember changing the value in milliseconds.
But I'll try this.
Do we add a string? Dword Key?
I have the directory
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Phone
I created a key with the listed DWORD value in HEX. This looks like it translates to 500 (ms?).

1000=1 second,
500 = .5 seconds,

I think the default is 3000 or 5000. And these are values in decimal.

I tried to search, maybee part of the board database issues? I had in an old rom...

Hope it works for you. My issue is a little worse though, I've waited upward of 3 minutes for a call to end. Voice mail, automated calls to any account pretty much always end in my wanting to throw my phone. It's like the button push just isn't registering. I know that turning the dtmf keypad tones off would cause this, but I started with short, and switched to long to no avail.

I also have the "Waiting for the dialing to turn to connected" issue as well. Not sure if it's related, but it's equally annoying.

It seems to be working for me, although it only works for the red/end key. I still get lags when dialing- including pressing numbers while trying to access voicemail.
I'll keep looking for that darn registry setting. I've done countless Google searches and searched my registry for "phone" & "delay", but didn't see what I remembered changing.

I'm in the same exact boat as you. It works great for End Call. Then I thought, the key is "EndCallTime" maybe it's something like "StartCallTime" that would fix it.

I'm getting more convinced that this is because of one or more of the dialers included in the 6.1 kitchen.
I've had two calls today where the response to the button press took so long that voicemails were skipped instead of deleted and calls went to voicemail instead of being disconnected (the first was a softkey button-press and the latter was the red/end hard-key).
I'm going to have to reflash as this isn't acceptable. I just don't know if I'm going to try a different dialer or go back to WM6.0. I've had this experience with both the Bluefrog Big Button dialer and the new green WM6.1 dialer. Past experience was that the Vogue and Touch dialers broke other stuff, so I might have to try a completely different one.
